Default Joey McMakin Shoes

Last autumn I raed an article that I couldn't forget because of the adorable shoes. I never saw sometihng beautiful again.

Does anybody know something about this brand?

part of the article
Landed his first job designing shoes for the largest footwear-company in France, Stephane Kélian. Twenty years later, McMakin, now based in Paris, is still designing shoes, now for an Italian footwear-couture company.
McMakin, who returns to central Illinois occasionally to visit family and friends, says that much of his success came from being in the right place at the right time.

I am woefully ignorant about the brand, and I can't tell you where to find them. However, this recent article seems to indicate that he's designing shoes for Rene Caovilla (another brand producing beautiful, beautiful shoes--albeit unwearable for me): Diane, A Shaded View on Fashion: Joey McMakin shoes photographed by Alessandro Barattoni. Added bonus: more pix of his gorgeous shoes!

Thanks. I will dream that night of this spring collection. And it will stay a dream as they look like they are more expensive than Manolo Blahniks.
Maybe another name for the disgnershoeforum someday.

You can buy Joey McMakin shoes at Saks Online (Forwarding Entry.jsp) as of January/February 2008. Another option is Jeffrey NY (Jeffrey), also in February.

There are a number of boutiques in Europe and the States that will carry the Summer 2008 line, but these are two great places to start.

That are some great news for our US ladies. Hope there will be somebody in the European-german speaking area too who offers a shipping for McMakin.
